General Safety Information
6
Protection against electrical hazards
Sources of voltage can give rise to currents as a result of body resistance, which not
only flow through the patient but can also impair or even endanger the personnel
administering the treatment.
• Devices that are not medical products in accordance with EN 60601 must be
set up outside the patient environment.
• Do not touch electrical connectors while you are touching the patient.
• Disconnect the mains plug before starting any cleaning and maintenance work
on the Intelect RPW Lite!
• Disconnect the connected handpieces from the device before carrying out
cleaning and maintenance work. Do not reconnect them until they have been
completely reassembled!
Protection against noise
The noise level during administration of pulses is within the safe range. Nevertheless,
we recommend wearing suitable ear protection during treatment in order to minimise
exposure to noise.
1.1.2
Safety during treatment of the patient
General note:
Organs with gas inclusions are NOT allowed to be exposed to pulses.
As it passes through tissue, the pulses' energy is slightly reduced; this reduction is
significantly weakened by the bone structure.
Pulses can give rise to undesirable reactions. The patient must be continuously observed
during the treatment and attention must be paid to any reactions experienced by the
patient. The patient must not be under anaesthetic.
Only perform treatments approved by the producer!
The user is responsible for correctly positioning the handpieces and correctly selecting
the treatment zone.
1.2
Warning against damage to equipment and the
device
Any damage to the device resulting from incorrect operation is not covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty.
